Hi everyone, I've got an odd problem on my fileserver machine when I try to take it from a perfectly working self-rolled 2.2.13 kernel (with international patches in place), to 2.2.14 (with international patches in place).
The problem is that on startup of the new 2.2.14 kernel, I get the system complaining that it can't load module "eth0", and the machine is thus unable to connect to my network. eth0 is a 3COM 3c59x, and loads as a module. <snip>
My guess is the driver for the 3c509 is not SMP capable. I had this problem with the 3c905 in my workstation. Go to http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/vortex.html and get the latest driver and check to see that is what you are compiling. (/usr/src/linux(or whatever)/drivers/net) This may be the problem. -- Bob F EMail FBob@wt.net A Truly Wise Man Never Plays Leapfrog With A Unicorn... -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
